The hangars are built using low-pressure infl atable tubes, aligned parallel to

each other forming a rib-cage structure. Structural stability of the infl atable

structure is guaranteed both lengthwise by the support of the lateral air

tubes, and crosswise through the internal pressure in the tubes. The material

of the tubes is a technical low-weight high-tenacity textile with a wide range

of available specifi cations including Colours, Camoufl ages, UV & Infrared

Protections, Temperature Resistance, Customized Specifi cations or even

Infrared Camoufl age.

There is a wide variety of doors to close the hangars, ranging from static, to retractable or even self-sustained door systems. The door systems are named Door-Modules “DM”

DM-SkinBasic door module with a tarpaulin retractable door to the full width of the hangar. Only suitable for hangar “H15-Bravo”.

DM-LayerDescending-edge door module with a tarpaulin retractable door available for medium range hangars. Only suitable for “H15-Bravo”, “H20-Charlie” and “H26-Echo”.

DM-ShelterSemispherical-end door module that transforms an opening of the hangar into an enclosure. It can be used on either ends of the hangar to transform it into a shelter or warehouse. Suitable for all models.

DM-Self-sustained doorsSelf-sustained doors are available from different manufacturers and for all sizes, they work independently to provide autonomous support required for the bigger hangars. Suitable for all hangars, specially “H32-Lima” and “H38-Tango”.

Doors & Enclosure Systems

Anchoring SystemThe anchoring of the hangar is done using high-resistance straps. These straps are specifi cally designed to improve security and resistance by enabling: the attachment of the structure to the ground or a platform, and the even distribution of loads.

Ground Fixation SystemsDepending on the terrain or specifi c needs we offer a wide range of ground fi xations systems compatible with the Anchoring System included.

• Earth screws for heavy soils.

• Anchoring Bags for the highest level of fl exibility, speed and mobility for all terrains.

• Resin-set anchor bolts or shield anchor bolts for permanent or recurring locations.

• Mobile wheeled and concrete platforms are also available for extra fl exibility.
